Siegel Trial Hinges On Original Inventory And Bank Loans

Testimony in the Siegel case centers on Prall’s ledger of inventory and a $100,000 bank loan to the Fourteenth street store supported by credit statements from 1913. Herbert Howell of the National Bank of Commerce testified to prior loans and asset figures, while defense questions questioned the timing and validity of the statements and alleged conspiracy. The $684.05 larceny charge is tied to this loan portion, amid broader allegedly illicit money dealings.
